Photoshop Quick Selection Tool & Match Colour

Good morning all!

I've managed to master the use of QS & MC however, if I accidentally colour part of the image which isn't required how do I rub out that mistake??

Thanks in advance

My advice is to stop using Match Color altogether.

As purely destructive functionality it seems worthless for serious work to me.

If you insist on continuing to use it always create a duplicate of the Layer first so you can restore the damaged parts from that.

Could you advice on the best way to transfer a colour from one image to my main image?
